In the final days of the season, the crews get all the gold they can before everything freezes over. The Hoffman Crew attempts to break the permafrost, but it ends in breaking the D8 Dozer, making Todd Hoffman call it quits. However, Jack Hoffman refused to give up, and was able to get a few hundred yards of dirt.

"Dakota" Fred, close to millions of gold, attempts to run all night to reach a final pay streak. Unfortunately, their pump breaks down, and they have to call quits.
